New edition of 'Drugs, the law and safer injecting' now ready to order

Date : 08 Sep 2009

The 2009 edition of Victoria Legal Aid’s Drugs, the law and safer injecting has just been reprinted. Created in partnership with the Department of Human Services, this discreet wallet-sized resource is for drug users and combines legal and health information.

In this edition we’ve changed the name (it was called Overdoses, the law and safer injecting); updated the design; shortened the health information to key health messages; and expanded the legal section. We’re no longer translating in Vietnamese but are exploring other ways of getting this information out to different communities.

You can download a copy of this resource, or request free printed copies using the online order form or by calling (03) 9269 0223.

You can also call the Victoria Legal Aid Legal Information Service on 03 9269 0234 or 1800 677 402 (country callers) Mondays to Fridays from 8.45 am to 5.15 pm for information and referral in relation to a drug-related offence and for any other legal issues. All telephone information is free and confidential.
